Genital herpes causes erectile dysfunction?

Patient's question:

Got genital herpes, there's a penis in the anus, there are many small red bumps, and it's a bit itchy. Looking at those small red bumps, I feel a bit nauseous. Will genital herpes cause impotence?

Doctor's answer:

Genital herpes does not directly cause premature ejaculation, but neglectful treatment can interfere with sexual life. Genital herpes is a highly contagious, recurrent, and clinically difficult-to-diagnose and treat sexually transmitted disease. Currently, many patients still rely on traditional medicine for treatment. It is worth noting that whether using traditional Chinese medicine or Western medicine to suppress the recurrence of genital herpes, it can only suppress the recurrence but cannot effectively treat the herpes itself. Therefore, it is recommended that patients seek scientific examination and proper treatment at a regular specialized hospital as soon as possible to prevent missed opportunities in diagnosis and protect their health.
